Lithium battery gone wrong, the guy never had a chance.



I passed a burned out car the other day on the side of the road on a curve a ways out of town.

The only thing left was a shell and if you threw it in the ditch you might of thought it fell off a scrap truck that pulled it out a 50-60s' vehicle that's been sitting in the junk yard the whole time.

Pretty easy to identify in the mirror as I passed, big black hole in the front vacant of an engine. The shell was burnt metal and the black asphalt looked it was torched.

Here's an idea,

Firefighters
PURPOSE: Often the first responders in emergency situations, firefighters play a vital role in their communities. Firefighting capabilities are essential on military bases, aircraft, and ships in order to protect their infrastructures, equipment, and people from fires, and to provide paramedical aid and hazard prevention services.


If you've got the tools use them, better then traveling around the world playing soldier.

They aren’t allowed to lay fire retardant ahead of the fire?
We do that here to keep personnel out of fires path.
It stays put and is effective a long time.
That jet fuel is cheaper than personnel.

Yup, that's normal ops cutting a fire line.

Worked a bit in Yellowstone in 88, and a good friend flies a DC10 in air tanker operations.

There's bs going on, but this is not an example of it - imho.
